After unlocking “The Witch’s Prophecy,” Rizley received buffs that allow him to leverage the Star Conduit reaction. Now, some of his normal attacks and his special charged attack deal damage based on this reaction, and his self-healing ability means he can play without a healer. In this guide, we’ll break down Rizley’s new build in Genshin Impact—weapons, artifacts, stats, and team composition.
Level Rizley up to Level 70 and complete the “Random Revelations” quest, which becomes available after the Archon Quest “Song of Dragon Freedom.” Then open the “Witch’s Prophecy Chest” in the “Tools” section and select “Overseer’s Instructions.” If you’ve already unlocked enhancements for other characters, you don’t need to repeat the introductory quest.
In the Guiding Star Realm, Rizley receives the following enhancements:
The third and fifth hits of a combo performed with an elemental skill deal Star Superconductor damage.
Her special charged attack also deals reaction damage and does not consume stamina.
When HP is below 60%, the enhanced charged attack becomes available without the previous 5-second cooldown. Its healing effect triggers no more than once every two seconds.
Reizley’s Stellar Superconductor damage is increased by 30%.
Rizley himself does not trigger the reaction. This requires a suitable ally—primarily Odette or Cryo Traveler. The party must also include an Electro character.
The Best Rizley Build—Weapons and Artifacts
Rizley needs critical hits and attack power. Elemental Mastery is also useful, but it’s not worth maxing it out in MS. The Cryo Damage Cup is inferior to Attack or MS options in this build: the elemental damage bonus does not amplify the direct damage of the Stellar Superconductor.
Best Artifacts:
4x Disappointment Frozen in the Shadows—the main set for this new build. It enhances the Stellar Superconductor and increases critical chance when conditions are met.
4x Twilight Court Hunter—a close alternative thanks to the critical chance bonus. If you’ve already assembled a good set, there’s no need to rush to change it.
4x Day of Rising Winds—a backup option with suitable stats.
2+2 for Attack Power and MS—a temporary setup until you obtain the full set.
Stats:
Watch: Attack Power / MS.
Goblet: Attack Power / MS.
Crown: Critical Damage / Critical Chance.
Additional stats: Critical Chance, Critical Damage, Attack Power %, MP.
Usually, you start with a Watch and a Chalice that provide Attack Damage. If your allies provide a lot of Attack Damage, you can replace one of these items with a Movement Speed item. It’s generally not worth equipping both a Watch and a Chalice that provide Movement Speed at the same time. There’s no need to specifically stack Energy Regeneration: supports can provide his ultimate.
When selecting critical strike items, consider the set bonuses: “Twilight Court Hunter” grants up to 36% critical strike chance, while “Disappointment Frozen in the Shadows” grants 16% for qualifying attacks. Do not exceed 100% critical chance, taking into account active buffs.
The best weapon is Treasury Watch. The Catalyst provides critical chance, attack power, and a bonus to Stellar Superconductor when HP changes. Rizley automatically activates his passive by consuming health and restoring it with charged attacks.
Alternatives:
Box of Truths, Shimmering Hopes—strong 5-star options for critical hits.
Kagura’s Truth—increases Star Superconductor damage; the effect builds up gradually over several skill uses.
Game of Kings—a strong 4-star option, especially at R5. To extend the passive, a regular charged attack is required within the first six seconds after activating the skill: an enhanced Star Attack does not meet this condition.
Wanderer’s Song is an affordable alternative for critical damage. The attack and MP bonuses are useful, and the elemental damage bonus does not amplify the main reaction.
Prayer to the Holy Winds and Celestial Atlas are suitable if you already have them on your account.
Memory of Dust—an Attack Power option that shines best in a team with a tank.
Best Rizli Teams with the Stellar Superconductor
Rizley needs a character to trigger the reaction, an Electro hero, and a support with useful buffs or a shield. Based on these combinations, you can assemble the following teams:
Rezli, Odette, Yae Miko, Nicole — Odette triggers and amplifies the reaction, Yae Miko deals damage from the backline, and Nicole provides a shield and boosts the team’s attack.
Rizley, Odette, Yae Miko, Sucrose — a build with MP bonus and resistance reduction via “Emerald Shadow.” There’s no shield, so you’ll need to dodge more carefully.
Rezli, Odette, Yae Miko, Zhong Li — a comfortable team composition with a sturdy shield and reduced enemy resistances.
Rizley, Odette, Bei Dou, Lan Yan—a setup without Yae Miko. Bei Dou is especially useful on Slot 6, while Lan Yan provides defense and carries “Emerald Shadow.”
Rizley, Cryo Traveler, Fischl, Lan Yan—a more accessible team composition without Odette and Yae Miko. The Traveler triggers the reaction, while Fischl maintains the Electro status.
Constant, strong healing here can reduce damage: it’s harder to bring Rizley’s HP below 60% and trigger her enhanced charged attack. Therefore, Qi Qi, Diona, and Bennett aren’t standard choices for this build. The Shieldbearer protects Rizli while retaining the ability to manage her own HP.
How to Play as Rizli in the New Build
First, use your allies’ abilities, apply Electro, and activate Star Superconductor. Then switch to Rizli, activate her skill, and perform a series of normal attacks. Try to reach the third and fifth hits—they deal reaction damage.
When your HP drops below 60%, use a boosted charged attack. It deals damage and restores HP. However, for boosted normal attacks, your HP must remain above 50%. Therefore, alternate between attack combos and healing charged attacks, focusing on your current HP rather than a strict button sequence.
